Italian Fruit Salad

1/3 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
2 tablespoons plus 1/3 cup whipping cream
3 tablespoons powdered sugar
Pinch ground cinnamon
12 ounces fresh strawberries, quartered (about 2 1/2 cups)
1/2 dry pint fresh raspberries (about 1 1/4 cups)
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 kiwi, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3 tablespoons sliced almonds, toasted
Stir the ricotta and 2 tablespoons of cream in a medium bowl to blend. Using an electric mixer, beat the remaining 1/3 cup of cream, powdered sugar, and cinnamon in a large bowl until semi-firm peaks form. Fold the ricotta into the whipped cream. Place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to stiffen and yield a creamier filling. (Can be prepared 4 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
Toss the strawberries, raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a medium bowl to combine. Let stand until juices form, tossing occasionally, about 15 minutes. Add the kiwi.
Spoon the fruit mixture into 4 dessert bowls. Dollop the ricotta cream atop the fruit. Sprinkle with the almonds and serve.


This is my favorite. Enjoy

I don't really have a recipe for a good basic fruit salad I sort of make it up as I go but I start with a can of good fruit cocktail and a can of pineapple chunks and usually a can of mandarin oranges but they are optional. Then I add what ever fresh fruit I have to add. Oranges, apples, bananas, grapes, cherries, peaches (could also be canned) - any fresh fruit you like. Sometimes I will add a bit of orange juice as well. You can stop there or if you like you can add any number of things to taste - coconut, pecans, walnuts, raisins, cool whip - what ever you like. It always comes out just a little different but always good.

Make the salad bowl or basket out of a watermelon. Cut a handle on the watermelon by laying it on the long side. Hollow it out by using a balling spoon. This will allow you to make small melon balls. Put the watermelon in a bowl. Get some strawberries slice them up, some cantaloupe and use the spoon on it also and put it in a bowl. Honeydew same way , add some blueberries, grapes. Mix together and add to the watermelon basket. Walla, zee fruit basket.

Answer 6

I don't have a recipe but I mix apples, oranges, bananas & green grapes with just enough lemon juice to keep the bananas & apples from turning brown then add about a Tbsp. or 1/4 cup sugar. I like it plain but my husband likes to put Cool Whip on it.
I also use strawberries &/or kiwi sometimes.
